where there are tables and chairs underneath because they create unnecessary risks to customers and the public.
(This was taken at the Pharmacy of the Specialists wing of Ipoh General Hospital. Notice at the far end, there are 4 persons sitting under the television set.)Once, a friend and his wife was having a meal in a Chinese restaurant in Batu Gajah and despite plenty of available tables, they were sitting underneath an old television set. I felt compelled to mention about the danger but did not. A few days later, I met the restaurateur's friend and told him about it. Then a couple of days later, I met him again and he said 'Sui hou' (Cantonese for 'mouth which speaks of bad luck') because a restaurant employee was slightly injured when he tried to adjust the set and the whole thing crashed on the table below. Luckily, nobody was seated underneath it.
In Batu Gajah, outside a Malay restaurant (corner shop, same row as KFC) there is an old tv set which has a cage to prevent theft, but never been used for a long time. Each time I walked along the corridor, I avoided it.
In Ipoh, off Jalan Kuala Kangsar, the corner coffee shop (opposite the BMW showroom) has a tv set and dvd player on the wall. Below these items, is a small bed for a child to sleep during business hours.
